So I asked a question a few months back about my Dysport wearing off so quickly. This would have been my fourth time getting Dysport , I asked to do a little bit more than I have been. The same exact time the following day I was dizzy, vomiting and then had the worst headache. I felt like I was getting the flu, I was so sick in bed and had a migraine for atleast 3 weeks. Is this a Normal thing to happen? Would this happen if I try Botox?! What should I do to help my wrinkles?
